My mother is 83. She uses a cane at times, and is limited in how far she can walk. Is it possible / desirable to try this tour with her, perhaps with a wheelchair? What things will she not be able to access in a wheelchair?

Most attractions are not paved and appropriate for a wheelchair. The ground is often uneven and rocky, sandy, or gravel, and there are a lot of stairs with no ramps available. Your mother would likely miss out on quite a few attractions.

Andri was an excellent guide. He shared a lot of information, was humorous and worked hard to keep us happy. Safety and making sure our needs were met was important to him. The Hotel Cabin is clean and has great staff making sure you use a suitcase that can go under a raised bed as the rooms here are much smaller than the other hotel that is bigger and clean as well. Icelanders are kind and helpful. I am happy with the tour and will have amazing memories of beautiful places I saw this week. I would love to return in the summer and see more of Iceland with Andri again. When you email, Tourradar answers very quickly. The tour is worth the cost and even if you don’t see the Northern lights due to weather issues do not forget the other beautiful places you got to see. Bring waterproof lined clothes, good gloves and boots, as well as a disposable rain poncho (maybe hand warmers too). We were warm in the hotels, van and restaurants. Read about the cost of restaurants and sweaters so you know the cost difference . I highly recommend the tour.Show more

Iceland has such natural beauty even in the dead of winter. I can imagine how beautiful it is in the summer when it’s all green and the long days of the midnight sun. The tour was great with all the places we visited. Accommodations and food were perfect. I’m 67 year old male, I was so excited at some of our stops that I felt like a child and couldn’t wait to get out of the van. Our tour guides were so knowledgeable and communicated so easily with the group. A special shoutout to Friorik our tour guide for the first 6 days.Show more
